As an alternative to flimsy plastic storage bags and heavy glass containers, 'Stasher' is introducing a completely plastic-free option that's reusable and resealable.
Stasher sets itself apart by making its self-sealing bags from pure platinum silicone, which is suitable for use in microwaves, dishwashers and freezers. This means that the bags are ideal for transporting or storing a variety of food items, lunches and snacks. Other than offering a sustainable way to carry around food, these bags are ideal for stashing a variety of small items, including travel-sized personal care products through airport security, since the bags come in both see-through blue and white versions.
The inventive silicone bags by Kat Nouri, a mom and sustainable housewares designer, have been named a winner of the design industry's prestigious Red Dot Award for 2016.
